When someone you're talking to over AIM types something for a while, then backspaces it and doesn't send it, and you only knew they were about to say something because your IM client shows when they're typing something?
The backspaced IM is a "phantom im". It often really is something better left unsaid.
Sometimes confused with "typing something meant for someone else in the wrong window".
"I asked Mike what his phantom im was, but it was something I wish I hadn't asked about."

Not to be confused with phantom shitter, the phantom pisser involves an individual with a full bladder walking into a public bathroom, switching off the lights, storming the first stall with a person in it by kicking down the door, and then unloading a warm spray of urine on the unlucky stall-goer. The pisser then sprints out of the restroom as fast as humanly possible without revealing their identity, thus becoming the phantom pisser.
-"Dude did you hear someone stormed into the girls bathroom and pissed on Emily?"
- " Yeah who did it?"
- " I don't know. They're just calling him the Phantom Pisser."

International university students who are usually from China or East Asia (but can also be from other parts of the world), who live in halls of residence with other students and stay in their rooms all day, don't socialise (apart from at Phantom gatherings) and often don't even introduce themselves to fellow flat mates.
On the odd occasion you may see a Phantom poke their head out of their door, however if they see any sign of human life they quickly retreat back in to the realms of their Phantom cave.
Usually you only get one Phantom every couple of flats, but for those unlucky people who are stuck in a flat full of them, our hearts go out to you.
"Hi John how are your flat mates then?"
"Not too bad, but I have a couple of Chinese phantoms, I never see them, they just stay in their rooms all day and never come out!"
